Your glass top stove will inevitably develop unsightly scratches. There’s no two ways to this. However, you could use cookware with flat bottoms (like All-clad) and you will delay these scratches. Think of them as battle scars. The biggest problem when using glass top stoves isn’t these scratches; it’s in precise temperature control. You will notice that heating is considerably faster when using stainless steel cookware, especially one without ridges. Non stick cookware doesn’t last either; you probably knew that. These are the best pans for glass top stoves and the biggest consideration we made when selecting them is that they all have rounded bottoms and won’t (easily) scratch your glass top stove. When it eventually scratches, get Lsyol Lime (amazon) and rust toilet bowl cleaner (amazon). They’re cheap and work magic.

T fal with a flat copper bottom – the best pan for glass top stoves
The pan in this set isn’t just ideal for a glass stove top because it comes with a shiny flat bottom; it will stay this way. You wouldn’t expect stainless steel to lose its vigor, would you? The pan is made with copper on its base as copper facilitates fast and even heat distribution. Stainless steel is used on its side for its durability and shiny mirror surface. Even though stainless steel takes time before heating up, it retains the heat for a considerable amount of time and this is desirable when cooking on a glass top stove.
It won’t be so heavy that it damages your glass top either. At the bottom of each pot, there’s a magnetic field which together with the flat base ensure that the pan sits steadily on the glass top without slipping.
According to the manufacturer, the thermospot indicator at the bottom of the pan turns red when it’s at the right temperature but the, optimal is subjective. Users have complained that this indicator only works when cooking at high heat. The non stick layer layer the pan comes with will give you value for money as long as you maintain it properly: Which means that you should handwash the pan with soapy warm water instead of dishwashing it while avoiding high temperatures. This pan is oven safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit but you certainly know that the non stick layer won’t survive multiple exposures to this heat.

Paula Deen Porcelain Cookware set
This pan has a non stick interior that stays stain free too. Cleaning it is a breeze even when you accidentally end up with burnt food residues. The ergonomic handles riveted to its body heat up relatively slower to the rest of the pan making them comfortable. How is it suitable for cooking on a glass top stove? The pan is symmetrical and the porcelain interior coating is precisely laid ensuring that it will balance without scratching your unit.
You can cook food fast thanks to its flat base that distributes heat evenly and then finish off your dish in the oven; as long as you don’t exceed 350 degrees Fahrenheit as the porcelain won’t withstand more than this.
Take good care of this pan by avoiding metallic utensils and harsh dishwasher detergents and it won’t lose the non-stick properties. According to Amazon reviews, the pan is impressively non stick that you don’t require non stick sprays or oil. The only downside of this pan is that food remains somehow wend up getting stuck to the rivets binding the handle and you have to wash it carefully. It’s dishwasher safe too but you already know that this isn’t the best maintenance practsie for a non-stick pan.
